    He might still make it, after all he will be playing tonight in the Irish masters in Citywest & he does plan to be playing in the World championships in a few weeks. :)


    He's protesting his innocence & he's said he'd never bring the game into disrepute. See here & here.

    It's just been announced today that he has got off with a caution for possession of cocaine by Preston police.
